Pandora - The World of Avatar is releasing more and more information seemingly everyday as the opening date grows closer.
Animal Kingdom's expansion will feature two marquee rides, both of which will have Fastpass+ capability.
Na'Vi River Journey
Height Requirement: None For Ages: Everyone
Description: Climb aboard a reed boat and soon you’ll see that on the sacred Kaspavan River, every moment tells a story, and every bend sings a song. This expedition into the rainforest deep within the Valley of Mo’ara will take you right into the middle of Pandora and Na’vi culture. Traveling into the darkest part of the forest, you’ll find yourself surrounded by a canopy of exotic glowing plants and amazing animals on the move. Listen closely and you’ll hear the Na’vi Shaman of Songs as she fills the forest with beautiful music about the sacred bond between nature and ourselves.Beyond any family adventure you’ve had before—that’s the Na’vi River Journey.
Flight of Passage
Height Requirement: 44 inches (112cm)
For Ages: Kids, Tweens, Teens, Adults
Description: In this expedition, you’ll experience the vast natural world of Pandora in all of its glory—from the air, on the back of a mountain banshee.This winged predator is one of the most important and culturally significant animals to the Na’vi. Flying on a banshee is an important rite-of-passage for the Na’vi and now, you will get the chance to test yourself. Soaring through ancient stone arches, under floating mountains and over the lush landscape, this expedition is an experience like no other.
Guests will also have a chance to explore the Valley of Mo'ara:
It’s where the land is an adventure unto itself. Where you don’t climb over mountains—you hike under them. It’s where the night sky comes alive with a bioluminescent glow. It’s where you’ll experience the start of a jaw-dropping, “I’ll-be-talking-about-it-for-years” type of adventure.
Check out our expeditions below, and, of course, don’t forget to hike the otherworldly forests and pathways throughout the valley.
Pandora - The World of Avatar officially opens May 27, 2017.
